I cut my umbrella man twice, once from black card and once from paper to use as a mask. I sponged the grass and sky with the mask in place, and stencilled in the rain. When the paste had dried, I added SN clear glitter pen over it all. I stamped Sending and the sun on the masked area.
Because of the off-centre centre of gravity of my die, I added some little punched flowers scattered over the grass, one of which serves to hold Umbrella Man in place. I rounded the edges before adding it to a burgundy base.

First, let me say I love the umbrella man. I have him as a stamp and an ef, but not as a die, so I love seeing him here. GReat use of the swing reveal technique, and the sun after the storm is such a fab idea. Thanks for such a fun challenge. I found it to be really easy!!!

Beautiful, this umbrella man reminds me Charlie Chaplin, love how you've done the sun under the man and love the little scene on your card, how many layers did you use?
